NRC Form 327 is submitted by fuel
facility licensees to account for special nuclear material. The
data is used by NRC to assess licensee material control and
accounting programs and to confirm the absence of (or detect the
occurrence of) SNM through theft or diversion. NUREG/BR-006
provides specific guidance and instructions for completing the form
in accordance with the requirements appropriate for a particular
licensee.
The burden increased by 16
hours, from 124 hours (31 reports x 4 hours per report) to 140
hours (35 reports x 4 hours per report). This increase is due to
the realization that 12 reports provided by the enrichment (for
natural uranium, depleted uranium and low-enriched uranium) and
fuel fabrication plants (for natural uranium and depleted uranium)
had not been identified and accounted for during the last
extension. In addition, three plants (one enrichment plant and two
fuel fabrication plants) are shut down and 8 reports attributed to
them are no longer provided. The NRC no longer prepares NUREG-0430
"Licensed Fuel Facility Status Report" and thus the cost to the
Federal Government has been adjusted accordingly.
